Hiya!

Prolly won't remember me, I posted a few weeks ago looking to buy a GTS (non turbo) Skyline..

Well, the sands have run thru the hourglass and I just picked up a 96 R33 GTST at auction thru Prestige..:D

My dwelling on a non-turbo Skyline lasted about 2 hours..after my bro told me that if I picked up a non-turbo one, I'd probably spend the time I drive it regretting not purchasing the GTST..and he was probably right!

So now I play the waiting game - compliancing!

Oh well, thought I'd tell someone!

Seeya!

Apparently it didn't sell at auction, but was able to privately bid for it.

Picked it up for 920,000Y FOB - maybe a bit on the high side, but it was a 4.5 rating, low kms, but I like the look of it and the 17" wheels, plus all I really wanted was a skyline with a sunroof..so I don't really mind.

Dunno if you guys also saw the 97 one on the list with sunroof / 18" wheels on the list last nite, it was on auction last week too (passed in at 950,000Y) - I wanted to bid on that again, but missed out. Had more dents and some cracks in it too..

      R32 only blows hot air

      By Duncan · Posted

      Not really, but the heater box is pretty simple mechanically....if the door is one way the air bypasses the heater core and if it is the other way it goes through it for warm air.  If you are sure the actuator you moved manually is for the heater mix (there would also be one for output air direction) then I'd take the heater box out and see what is happening (you'll have to regass and re-coolant the systems afterwards) BTW pp724 onwards from the GTR workshop manual cover the system in good detail, it is probably worth checking. I think the IAT sensor might be a problem electrically for getting cold (if you got 24 error code not -24 it thinks the incoming air is -50c) and it covers how to test the sensor (although most likely it is either not plugged in or a wire is damaged)

      Leaking Rear Subframe Bushing?

      Use the GKTech subframe bush and bring your subframe 10mm closer to the chassis. You'll need to fix an exhaust hanger to suit. One of the best mods I've done.

      Wires cut underneath shifter cover

      You'd really have to pull it apart further to know, it least you can be confident that the one heading to the back is not connected any more. There was once a ground on the shifter seal mount too, your head unit issue could be that simple

      Perfect, I'll get to it this winter then at the same time as I weld on my anti squat kit.

      R32 only blows hot air

      By SeanR32GtSt · Posted

      Alright so my 32 only has one temperature no matter what degree you set it to. I’ve tried disconnecting the servo motor arm and moving it either direction and got no change. I’ve fixed the leak in my AC and re charged it and with it on and clutch engaged it still blows hot even though the low pressure pipe going to the firewall is ice cold. Both heater core hoses are hot while running as well. Diagnostic code showed 24 for intake air temperature sensor. Anybody got any ideas?
